EBC Volunteer - Jacqueline Duong

Posted by Jenny Hsieh

Welcome Jacqui to our 2018 EBC team! 

Here is a little bit about Jacqui in her own words: 

"Hi, I’m Jacqui! I graduated from Deakin University in 2015 and currently locum across regional Australia in both private and community practices. I find travelling is a great way to learn about new cultures, its people and cuisine.

Early this year I volunteered in the Morobe Province of Papua New Guinea, performing sight tests and educating villagers about general eye health and vision care. This has been a humbling and rewarding experience, being able to serve the people of PNG with my skills and knowledge. 

I am excited about the challenges of trekking in Nepal and look forward to assisting the Nepalese community".
